Cool GSC, Saturmorn.

Today I got to play a game of Pulp Alley - this time using Battletech miniatures! Works swell for BT type battles.

Built 3 Inceptors.

I've never known a single Marine to have so many fething pieces, yet zero posability.

No model/no rule is such bs.

After getting wrecked by the pandemic, my goal of adding 1 new player/month to our AoS pool has resumed!

I ran an AoS Gitz vs "order" battle Thur. evening in our D&D game to play out a mass battle. Two of the guys were very interested.
Today I get a text from one asking if/what time we were playing AoS this evening (he knows Sat is generally our minis night).

So we had a 4 player/1k pt Seraphon vs Beastmen/Kharodon battle with him running 1/2 the Seraphons & taught the rules more in depth than on Thur..
End of the evening? He ordered a Luminoth set.

Now I just need to add 4 more AoS players to get the goal caught up....

Scraping sand off the bases of 2nd hand models I got so I can paint and flock them.

Magnetized the base of 30 Gaunts with Devourers as well as 6 Genestealers over the weekend.

Been a bit on the slow side for the hobby for me lately, and magnetizing bases isn't really flashy, but as we'll prepare for a crusade soon I should start something a bit more substantial!

Finished my plastic necron army unit, a box of the green rod warriors. My force now includes
Includes 20 warriors; 5 immortals; 5 snipers; 3 destroyers; 1 metal tomb spider; 6 scarab bases; 1 lord; and that floaty weapons platform thing. Works great for Grim Dark Future!

Just finished building a Seraphon Realmshaper Engine.

Next up? Painting it.

Painting dawnriders. I so hate painting cavalry

Working on some more OOP Wave Serpent resin turrets.

Cheers,

CB

Just finished this one...

Tiny Furniture's "Troll Chief Throne" is a single-piece miniature, which stands 3 1/2" tall on a 2" x 2" base. Pretty large for a miniature -- and it's certainly not just tiny furniture! The throne is composed of various dragon, animal, humanoid, and human skulls and bones, held together with wood, leather, and rope, on a stone base. There's even a large stone axe and a rune stone. Even though the name of the figure is "Troll Chief Throne", the throne is fine for large evil humanoids, such as ogres, and physically powerful orcs, bugbears, etc. The throne has not only the incredible detail you expect from Tiny Furniture, but your players will want to pick it up and look at it closely, to try to identify the different skulls and other features on this impressive structure! As something of a spoiler, look for: a mammoth skull and tusks, a second set of mammoth tusks, a third set of mammoth tusks, two gigantic humanoid (orc?) skulls, the skull of a giant cat, an even bigger skull of an even gianter cat, and a dragon skull! Those trolls have certainly been busy! The model is available both unpainted and painted. Despite all this detail and features, this terrain piece can be easily painted quickly by a beginner. Intermediate painters with a little experience with blood effects will want to give the huge stone axe a nice coat of blood, and perhaps a blood stain on the steps of the throne. Just to make things interesting. I'm sure if you have extra skulls for basing, you could find some room for them on the steps as well. Painters will also be happy to know that the miniature has minimal prep, with pretty much no mold lines or gaps.

All Vindicators and Rhinos are painted and now officially packed for the next 3rd ed. 40K night. Now to hammer out the last squad of Crimson Fists and the replacement Assault Cannon arm for my Terminator squad. Then it's on to painting the Dwarf army.

Finished five more OOP Wave Serpent resin turrets. This gives me ten turrets for four Serpents.

Played game of aos so not much painting but some progress with　horses. Googling images of horses realized white "socks" to legs is good way to vary horses and one grey horse got dotty pattern to fur. Crazy me did that with 3 colours individually with highlight brush. Dot, dot, dot...

Nice work tneva82.

Starting another couple of terrain pieces.

Working on the tomb king from the warsphinx box. Soo many gems everywhere.

Opened up the GW Plasma Regulator kit. A little disappointed on how simple a kit it is.

I am painting more tiny frogs and mushrooms for such as a pond

More lumineth dawnriders. One horse got pinto colouring. I decided to vary more of my horse colours than my usual brown/grey. So far 10 horses, 6 different colour schemes.

Also packed for tomorrow's double's AOS tournament.

Started painting the GW Plasma Regulator kit.

Played in aos doubles tournament which was miserable(got affected a lot by non-game related issue). Started working on spell portals.

Collecting dino, Seraphon, minotaur & giant (minotaur) skeletons to decorate the surroundings of my World Shaper Engine.

Continued painting the GW Plasma Regulator kit.

I built the last of my tomb guard and decided to make a couple more unit fillers from the hard to rank up ones. I have a block of 47 now, plus a king in the front. I still need to fill the cracks on the sides of the ribcages.

Worked on some Leman Russ tanks for an upcoming Crusade project. Magnetized just about every weapons port for one, so I can swap between a battle cannon and plasma cannon for extra fun. Also magnetized the rear of the turret, so I can swap in the relevant box cover as well.





Since taking the pictures I've also added on a search light and a pintle-mounted stubber, along with some extra kit to the rear in form of a tool box and an oil tin.

Lumineth lumineth lumineth

Cavalry getting to point they pass as painted though plenty steps still to do.

Just wrapped up making movement trays for 2 20 man Chaos Warrior regiments and gluing together the models necessary to complete said units to that number.

Continued painting the GW Plasma Regulator kit.

Trying to get back on a pre-Indomitus Space Marine sergeant that's been sitting pieces on my bench. I keep finding myself browsing Dakka instead of actually working on it though . . .

I glued Grimgor and his black orcs together. My black orcs are a mix of 4th and 6th edition, and I will need to split the units off at some point so that they match.
